    Stromal
    Cell Diversity Associated with Immune Evasion in Human Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

    Single‐cell RNA sequencing of five TNBCs revealed two cancer‐associated fibroblast (CAF) and two perivascular‐like (PVL) subpopulations. CAFs clustered into two states: the first with features of myofibroblasts and the second characterised by high expression of growth factors and immunomodulatory molecules.

    Prevention
    of dsRNA-Induced Interferon Signaling by AGO1x Is Linked to Breast Cancer Cell Proliferation

    Researchers report that AGO1x, an evolutionarily conserved translational readthrough isoform of Argonaute 1, was generated in highly proliferative breast cancer cells, where it curbed accumulation of double‐stranded RNAs (dsRNAs) and consequent induction of interferon responses and apoptosis.

    Aquaporin
    1 Promotes Sensitivity of Anthracycline Chemotherapy in Breast Cancer by Inhibiting β-Catenin Degradation to Enhance TopoIIα Activity

    Scientists found that aquaporin1 and glycogen synthase kinase-3β competitively interacted with the 12 armadillo repeats of β-catenin, followed by the inhibition of the β-catenin degradation that led to β-catenin’s accumulation in the cytoplasm and nuclear translocation.

    Acetylation Stabilizes Phosphoglycerate Dehydrogenase by Disrupting the Interaction of E3 Ligase RNF5 to Promote Breast Tumorigenesis

    Phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH) was degraded by the E3 ubiquitin ligase, RNF5, to prevent the proliferation of breast cancer cells. The acetylation of PHGDH at K58 disrupted the interaction of RNF5-PHGDH and promoted the proliferation of breast cancer cells.

    Novel Culture Method That Sustains ERα Signaling in Human Breast Cancer Tissue Microstructures

    Ex vivo human breast cancer tissue cultures retained original tissue architecture, epithelial and stromal cell components and estrogen receptor α (ERα).

    MiR-93
    Suppresses Tumorigenesis and Enhances Chemosensitivity of Breast Cancer via Dual Targeting E2F1 and CCND1

    Researchers found that miR-93-5p (miR-93) significantly inhibited cell proliferation, induced G1/S cell cycle arrest and increased chemosensitivity to paclitaxel in vitro and in vivo.

    Non-Coding RNA LRRC75A-AS1 Facilitates Triple Negative Breast Cancer Cell Proliferation and Invasion via Functioning as a ceRNA to Modulate BAALC

    A novel ceRNA network of LRRC75A-AS1/miR-380–3p/BAALC accelerated TNBC development.

    P2X7
    Receptor Promotes Mouse Mammary Cancer Cell Invasiveness and Tumour Progression, and Is a Target for Anticancer Treatment

    Scientists showed that P2X purinoceptor 7 (P2X7) receptor was functional in highly aggressive mammary cancer cells, and induced a change in cell morphology with fast F-actin reorganization and formation of filopodia, and promoted cancer cell invasiveness through both two- and three-dimensional extracellular matrices in vitro.

    RelB
    Sustains Endocrine Resistant Malignancy: An Insight of Noncanonical NF-κB Pathway into Breast Cancer Progression

    RelB promoted breast cancer cell proliferation through increased G1/S transition and/or decreased apoptosis by upregulation of Cyclin D1 and Bcl-2. RelB upregulated bone metastatic protein MMP1 expression through binding to an NF-κB enhancer element located at the 5′-flanking region.

    Metastasis Is Associated with Acquisition of Mesenchymal Phenotype and Immune Suppression in a Model of Spontaneous Breast Cancer Metastasis

    Investigators report the establishment and characterization of a bone-seeking variant of breast cancer cells that spontaneously formed aggressive bone metastases following surgical resection of primary tumor.

    Novel Naphthalimide That Selectively Targets Breast Cancer via the Arylhydrocarbon Receptor Pathway

    TNBC cell line MDA-MB-468 with a GI50 value of 100 nM was greater than 500-fold more sensitive to NAP-6 compared with other tumor derived cell models. Within one hour exposure of these cells to NAP-6, CYP1A1 expression increased 25-fold, rising to 250-fold by 24 hours.
